OECD Development Assistance Committee

The OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) is a group of countries that work together to promote economic development and welfare in poorer nations. Established by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the DAC sets guidelines for official development assistance (ODA), ensuring that aid is effective and focused on reducing poverty. It monitors member countries' contributions and encourages best practices in delivering assistance. By fostering international collaboration, the DAC aims to improve living standards, support sustainable development, and enhance global cooperation in addressing pressing challenges such as health, education, and environmental issues.
